Description

Project funds were used to supplement budget costs for construction for an arched concrete bridge at the Kabusie Creek crossing on the BIA Public Road Makah Passage, located on the Makah Reservation. This project was a major milestone in our Tsoo-Yess Basin Anadromous Passage project to re-establish stream habitat floodplain connectivity between the Tsoo-Yess River and its associated floodplain. A concrete bridge replaced the impassable non-functioning culvert. This project was designed to directly benefit fish production by restoring fish passage to one mile of habitat. Planning and preparation for the project started many years ago, however installation was completed during the summer of 2015.

Project Benefit

Tsoo-Yess River limiting factors addressed are loss of tributary spawning habitat due to fish blocking structures and loss of tributary contributions to summer base flows in the Tsoo-Yess River.
